A Journey of Immigration - This memoir will take you on a journey from Bagnoli, Naples Italy, where I was born to immigrating to the US in search of the American Dream. You will walk the streets of the burning South Bronx, where I started my Americanization to my final destination of Westchester NY. Each chapter is filled with personal thoughts, poems, and family recipe so that the reader may better understand the author and the struggle of becoming an American. Let's hold hands and fly into the arms of Lady Liberty. Always Live with passion. Filomena Abys-Smith
